White Cloud Sect.
Cheng Buzheng saw the Heaven Escaping Boat, which was ten thousand meters long, he was deeply shocked.
Although he had seen it several times, and even observed it up close, he couldn't help but sigh with admiration every time he saw the ship.
From afar, the boat resembles a massive dark cloud, dividing the sky in two. Up close, it obscures the sun and makes it impossible to discern its shape or form!
At the same time, Cheng Buzheng saw many spiritual lights rising into the air from various parts of the White Cloud Sect and flying towards White Cloud Peak.
Every now and then, streaks of spiritual light would shoot out from the sect's entrances and exits toward White Cloud Peak.
These cultivators were all Martial Brother and sisters from the sect who had rushed back from outside after receiving the news of the gathering.
A short while later.
Cheng Buzheng arrived at White Cloud Peak Square.
At this moment, the Martial Brother and sisters who were usually nowhere to be seen gathered together!
Several people who knew each other gathered together, forming small circles in twos and threes, which gradually formed in the square. However, there were also cultivators like Cheng Buzheng all alone.
Seeing this, Cheng Buzheng went to the edge of the square and sat down cross-legged.
At this moment, he could not feel a sliver of sunlight; the entire square was shrouded in a huge shadow.
Cheng Buzheng glanced at the Heaven Escaping Boat floating above the plaza.
Upon seeing the bottom of the boat, which resembled a black curtain, countless patterns were deeply imprinted on its surface, as if it were naturally formed, harmonious and without any sense of incongruity.
At this moment, spiritual light flowed within those patterns, dazzling and colorful, displaying a myriad of phenomena, instantly revealing an aura of immortality!
See here.
Cheng Buzheng knew that the enormous object before him was at least a large-scale Law Treasure Ship.
Because of the patterns on it, he could only recognize the Array Patterns, but he couldn't figure out anything about the Restrictions.
This was beyond his comprehension; it was definitely a realm of Spirit Restriction that he had not yet ventured into.
Spirit Restriction are the Restrictions used to refine Law Treasure. Only cultivators at the Golden Core Stage are capable of refining them. Even if Cheng Buzheng mastered Spirit Restriction, he still couldn't refine magical Law Treasure because his mind and Divine Sense were simply not capable of completing the extremely complex inscription of Spirit Restriction.
Moreover, each Spirit Restriction must be completed in one go, without the slightest pause or mistake.
The numerous Spirit Restriction before us could not have been crafted by a single third-tier Artifact Refiner; they must have been the work of many third-tier Artifact Refiner working together.
As for the Array Patterns patterns, the assistance of array masters is still needed to completely refine this special strategic-grade Law Treasure, the Heaven Escaping Boat.
No wonder, back then the sect scrimped and saved, and spent such a huge amount of money to create the Heaven Escaping Boat.
As far as he knew, the Heaven Escaping Boat had three levels, with the bottom cabin specifically for storing the corpses of Desolate Beast.
The Heaven Escaping Boat is a strategic treasure crafted specifically for Desolate Beast, and it is an essential strategic asset for most sects that wish to explore the Endless Sea.
Desolate Beast are different from Demon Beast. Not only are they enormous, but they also lack any intelligence. They only know how to kill and devour. This is true for Desolate Beast Desolate Beast of all ranks, even those with the strength of Spirit Transformation!
As Demon Beast absorb and exhale the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, their intelligence also grows continuously. A first-tier Demon Beast has the intelligence of an infant and can only act according to its instincts.
If Demon Beast advances to the second tier, its strength is equivalent to that of the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, and its intelligence increases significantly, becoming comparable to that of a human child.
However, once one advances to the third rank, which is equivalent to Golden Core Stage cultivator, their intelligence is like that of a human youth.
Breaking through to the fourth rank allows one to transform into a Heavenly Dao body, greatly increasing cultivation speed. However, most fourth-rank Demon Beast prefer to retain some of their original characteristics and do not completely transform into human form.
With the passage of time, his vision, shrewdness, and cunning have become increasingly sophisticated and ruthless!
Some fourth-tier Demon Beast with long lifespans have become as cunning and resourceful as foxes over the years, even surpassing the cunning of ordinary Nascent Soul True Lord.
Of course, this is merely a matter of intelligence; it doesn't mean that Demon Beast forget their nature. Some Demon Beast are inherently cruel, while Demon Beast are inherently gentle.
With wisdom, all of this is considered to a certain extent; one will not act according to instinct, but will also consider the consequences to be faced afterward.
Therefore, hunting high-level Demon Beast in the Endless Sea is a very difficult task.
Desolate Beast, on the other hand, are much simpler to hunt; with just a little luring, they can be easily surrounded and Desolate Beast.
This is also one of the sect's major sources of spiritual resources. Because the Desolate Beast are too large, ordinary storage bags simply cannot hold them, so they can only be transported by Treasure Ship.
Like the Heaven Escaping Boat of the White Cloud Sect; otherwise, even with great gains, it would be impossible to transport them safely back.
The second level of the White Cloud Sect's Heaven Escaping Boat consists of residences for many cultivators, a main hall, and a deck.
The main hall was also where most monks traded and exchanged ideas.
The top floor is the activity area for Golden Core True Person, as well as the core control room.
Most cultivators cannot even set foot on this level, especially the heavily guarded core control room.
Cheng Buzheng gazed at the enormous black curtain, numerous records about the Heaven Escaping Boat flashed through his mind.
As time goes by.
On White Cloud Peak, the number of fellow disciples gathering in the square was increasing!
At this moment, Cheng Buzheng also saw a familiar figure, Jiang Fugui, who looked very auspicious. Now, he was sitting cross-legged in a corner with a somewhat gloomy expression. The social butterfly he used to be had was now listless and had lost all his former charm.
The Cold Fairy maintained her usual aloof expression, radiating an icy aura.
There was also that rumored powerful cultivator who coerced others into participating in the trial and forced them into a transaction.
He wore the sect's Black Robe, had a handsome face, and looked gentle and sunny, a far cry from the rumored hateful and shameless character.
At this moment, this fellow disciple was chatting and laughing with many other cultivators.
"It seems the more shameless they are, the better they are at packaging themselves. Perhaps that's what makes a high-level player!"
Cheng Buzheng thought to himself.
At the same time, he maintained absolute distance from this fellow disciple, as he didn't want to have any contact with this high-level player.
After Cheng Buzheng the area, Cheng Buzheng spotted the coerced disciple in a corner of the square.
At this moment, this fellow disciple seemed to be looking at the enormous Heaven Escaping Boat in the sky above, but his peripheral vision was constantly watching the high-level player.
See here.
Cheng Buzheng knew that this fellow disciple's future fate would definitely not be good.
He also didn't believe that a high-level player would overlook a previous hidden danger, and that the other party wouldn't notice it after observing him for so long out of the corner of their eye.
This is something that doesn't even need to be considered.
At this point, within the sect, it's impossible to completely eliminate them; at most, they can be suppressed.
If you don't kill the snake, it will surely bite you back!
"Perhaps this high-level player is looking for a good opportunity."
"When we strike, it will be a thunderous blow!"
Cheng Buzheng secretly deduced the situation in his mind.
But he had no intention of meddling in other people's business; usually, cultivators who meddle in other people's affairs don't live long!
